This is an attempt to create a database of all South African Qur’aan memorisers (Huffaadh) and reciters (Qurraa) and to document such information in the history of South Africa. There are literally hundreds of students that commits the entire Qur’aan to memory every year and we therefore wish to note each male and female reciter in the country. Any reciter/ memorizer may register, but for purpose of record, the title ‘Haafidh’ is reserved for those who have completed the memorization of the Holy Qur’aan in its entirety, whilst the title ‘Qaari’ are for those who studied the sciences of Qur’aan recitation. Some of the present information was gathered/ forwarded to us by various sources and might by now be outdated.
The Muslim population of South Africa has been very active in establishing Islamic centers across the country. Specialized Qur`aan classes may be found at many mosques in addition to the numerous private institutions established specifically for that purpose. Herewith is a list of institutes that are registered on our database.
Should you wish to add an institute that is not listed below or if you would like to enter your details as a reciter/ memorizer of the Holy Qur’aan, kindly register here.
